Asking for a response from the OP: Do you not have other network access available to maintain your AUR packages? More to the point, are you maintaining packages on AUR as part of your official responsibilities? Or just in spare time? Leaving aside, for the moment, all other arguments regarding blocking outbound SSH, I believe these are fundamental questions.
To answer your questions:
1. Yes, I do have network access outside of my corporate environment. However, much (READ: all) of the project maintenance and code lives on and is performed on my corporate servers.
2. I currently maintain the ownCloud-beta-client package as part of my involvement with that group. This is done as part of my official duties in my corporate environment.
My organization is also looking to begin sharing several large projects within a few months. Without another form of access, this would be technically impossible.
Tom, sofar many people have responded, but 1 name is missing : Lukas Fleischer, our valued aur web maintainer. I suggest you create a feature request for AUR git over https support at https://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?project=2 . LVV
